New for 2022
When La Tannerie was open as a functioning tannery, the large barn operated as the main workshop. It was a hive of activity where as many as 60 workers were employed to make state of the art leather buttons.
The larger barn ‘L’atelier du Bouton’ opened this year and sleeps up to four guests in two bedrooms.
La Tannerie can now sleep up to 14 guests.
